What Sets the Slope of the Molecular Kennicutt-Schmidt Relation?
Vadim A. Semenov, Andrey V. Kravtsov, Nickolay Y. Gnedin
The surface densities of molecular gas, , and the star formation rate (SFR), , correlate almost linearly on kiloparsec scales in observed star-forming (no…
How galaxies form stars: the connection between local and global star formation in galaxy simulations
Vadim A. Semenov, Andrey V. Kravtsov, Nickolay Y. Gnedin
Using a suite of isolated galaxy simulations, we show that global depletion times and star-forming gas mass fractions in simulated galaxies exhibit systematic and well-de…
Enforcing the Courant-Friedrichs-Lewy Condition in Explicitly Conservative Local Time Stepping Schemes
Nickolay Y. Gnedin, Vadim A. Semenov, Andrey V. Kravtsov
An optimally efficient explicit numerical scheme for solving fluid dynamics equations, or any other parabolic or hyperbolic system of partial differential equations, should allow l…
